Notes
Variations Ideas
- Change the Chicken - You can use chicken thighs, boneless skinless chicken breast or chicken tenderloins.
- Use different potatoes - Instead of red potatoes use baby potatoes or russet potatoes. Make sure that the potatoes are cut about the same size so they cook evenly.
- Add in Vegetables to the Slow Cooker - For a complete meal in the crock pot add green beans, broccoli or asparagus in the last hour of cooking time.
- Change the Seasoning – You can change the seasoning to what you have on hand. Sometimes I just use some season salt and pepper and the chicken comes out flavorful and juicy.
- Mashed Potatoes - Instead of roasting potatoes in the crock pot, you can make mashed potatoes to serve the chicken over.
- Garlic Powder - You can use garlic powder instead of minced garlic.
